About this event

What if business and investing could be rooted in the deepest values of the human spirit?

In her groundbreaking book, Enlightened Bottom Line, Jenna Nicholas explores the powerful intersection of spirituality, business, and investing—an intersection too often overlooked in a world driven by profit alone. Drawing on moving stories of entrepreneurs, investors, and leaders who are living out this integration, along with cutting-edge research, Nicholas reveals how spiritual wisdom can guide ethical choices in finance and business.

Unlike other books on business or investing, Enlightened Bottom Line is not just about strategies, numbers, or policies. It is about reimagining what wealth, success, and leadership can truly mean when guided by purpose, compassion, and integrity. It offers readers concrete frameworks and real-world examples to align their financial decisions with their deepest beliefs.

This event is for leaders, investors, entrepreneurs, changemakers, and anyone seeking to make their work and money matter—people who feel the tension between striving for success and yearning for meaning. Readers will walk away not only with tools and insights, but also with a renewed sense of hope: that business and investing can serve as vehicles for healing, justice, and spiritual growth

This discussion will be chaired by Professor Nava Ashraf
